Palethnologie, 2010 Ashes, the mineral residues of wood combustion, contain siliceous particles that can be preserved for long periods in archaeological sediments. Phytoliths can thus be useful indicators of combustion activities whose biodegradable or soluble remains have disappeared.In this paper, an experimental evaluation of the potential of phytoliths for the ...

Nickel Effects on Growth and Phytolith Yield of Grasses in Contaminated Soils
Soil SystemsNickel (Ni) is extremely toxic to plants at high concentrations. Phytoliths have the potential to sequester the heavy metals absorbed by plants and act as a detoxification mechanism for the plant.

Impacts of deforestation and burning, and the role of bracken fern, on the properties of surficial or buried soil A-horizons [PDF]
, 2008 Bracken fern (Pteridium spp.) is an aggressive plant that commonly invades disturbed sites. Its success as an invader is attributable, in part, to its ability to produce abundant growth, both below ground in the form of rhizomes and fine roots and above ...
